It is not unusual to drive by a meadow in Italy and see someone foraging for wild greens. Country people know just which ones are the tastiest and where to find them. If they pick more than they can use, they often bring the extra to the market to sell. In Sicily, this frittata is commonly made with wild greens, but cultivated vegetables won’t disappoint you.
